The last part is only needed if you're using the dynamic gunsight reticles.

There are several problems with the text in the cockpit that needed to be corrected. Here are the files you'll need to fix them.

Trying to find a .mos file for this one so bullet hole will show.

 

[gosd]

Changing the last digits in the 3 first contact points of the.cfg file from
point.0 = 1, -13.68, 0, -3.3, 2165.354, 0, 0.549, 12, 0.253, 2.5, 0.498, 4, 5, 0, 124.72, 140.31
point.1 = 1, 2.02, -5.917, -7.2, 2165.354, 1, 0.549, 0, 0.633, 2.5, 0.8, 5.5, 6, 2, 124.72, 140.31
point.2 = 1, 2.02, 5.917, -7.2, 2165.354, 2, 0.549, 0, 0.633, 2.5, 0.8, 6, 6.5, 3, 124.72, 140.31
to

point.2 = 1, 2.02, 5.917, -7.2, 2165.354, 2, 0.549, 0, 0.633, 2.5, 0.8, 6, 6.5, 3, 158.72, 179.31

will prevent getting the landing gear damage message.

Thanks for the information. Very helpful , as always.

I use latest (Kerry clement/Klass_o_44 repainted by Alain95 ) P-51D cockpit, looks much better but need a bit fix

Here's for the cockpit : http://www.mediafire.com/download/9tlpokut8oa7sda/p_51d_361.rar

 

[MajorMagee]

Yes, that replacement cockpit does not fit well into the rest of the model leaving a large gap over the engine, but otherwise the new interior does look quite good.

 

[HouseHobbit]

Thanks for the corrections, and the added effects.
BRAVO!!

 

[MajorMagee]

If you don't care for the green tint on the bubble canopy you can hex edit file P_51d_361.M3D at address A78 through A7B to 33 33 33 33.

 

[sixstrings5859]

Thanks Major for the heads up on the cockpit fix. Added it to the download section for use updating the cockpit issues. Thanks to all involved in this aircraft. P-51's RULE ! Not make-believe as the Luft '46 stuff........

 

[wiekniera]

Aahh yes! thanks major! for those green tinted canopy fix! you just refresh my memory about this one

 

[MajorMagee]

Trying to find a .mos file for this one so bullet hole will show.

With some help from Captain Winters here you go.

Great ! This is turning out to be a good team work.
All we need now is for master HH to make a few missions for this bird and the 361fs.
I think the concept of SOH was and is still well and alive.

 

[sixstrings5859]

Missions based on this fighter group is a great idea ! Hopefully HH or someone can make some missions for this fighter. Trying to learn mission building my self and it is not easy.

 

[sixstrings5859]

I would like to thank whoever combined the cockpit update with the original aircraft . That was very thoughtful and a nice thing to do. Thanks

 

[gosd]

One might like to look at this site it holds a lot of info for futur missions:http://361fg.com/Hist.htm.
Looking for a proper P-47D skin for this FS.

 

[gosd]

Should look something like this one:
